A.K.A. Dumbbell Walking Lunge

Hold a set of dumbbells and stand with a hip-width stance. Take a large step forward (about half your body height) landing on the heel and dropping your body down until your front leg is parallel with the floor or lower. Push off the ball of your foot with your back leg and pull your body up with your front leg by driving through your heel until your back leg meets your front leg and you are standing fully upright. Repeat by stepping forward with the opposite leg. Keep alternating legs until you run out of space or reach muscle fatigue. If you run out of space before reaching muscle fatigue, turn your boy 180 degrees and do walking lunges back to the place you started at. Continue until reaching muscle fatigue.
